The Kumoch Cliff ( Filar Kumocha in Polish ) is a bare and 300  m high rock cliff on King George Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . On the banks of Mackellar Inlet , it rises in the middle of the Domeyko Glacier in the central part of Three Musketeers Hill .

Polish scientists named it in 1980 after the meteorologist Lechosław A. Kumoch, a participant in two Polish expeditions to the Antarctic (1977 to 1978 and 1978 to 1979).
